I have been having an argument with a friend and he says that Marvel is for guys, please help me prove to him that there are lots of women who like Marvel!
things tony got in civil war:
+ a flashback to an important moment in his past
+ a look at his parents and their relationship
+ a non-action/character driven scene to catch viewers up on what our hero has been doing
+ time given to his closest friendship, including a heartfelt/respectful scene at the end
+ an apology
things steve got in civil war:
+ none of that
Ilon Rka
I just realised where Kylo got his name from:
Ky = sKYwalker
Lo = soLO
Ren = literally just his birth name with an R
which means that when he was choosing his super scary Dark Lord name, he just mashed up the surnames of the most positive figures in his life. poor sod can’t even evil right
To all Doctor Strange and MCU haters.
You should get a life. Boycotting a film means ignoring it. Please do. Nobody cares. Stop imposing your opinion on everyone else. We are not going to apologise for watching it. Thank you.
This is your friendly reminde that Steve Rogers is a gift in this earth and we should protect and appreciate him.
What I don’t understand is why would he be suicidal in TFA? He obviously had plans for the future. He had a mission (there still was war and people who needed saving), he had a team, there was an amazing woman who he could have a future with. He was grieving after Bucky's death but he didn't want to die, he wanted to fight.
Ugh. If I read one more post in the Cap tag about Steve crashing the Valkyrie being about him wanting to commit suicide I may scream. So, in that vein…
Friendly reminder that the Valkyrie (aircraft, not character) was powered by the tesseract, which had, inside of it, the space gem, an infinity gem we’re about to get up close and personal with again here pretty quickly. As such it moved at extraordinary speed and stealth with technology completely unknown during the 1940′s. Hell, it would probably be unknown even in this time, through SHIELD tried their best to harness that power, re: Avengers. And it was made clear in Avengers that SHIELD didn’t know what the heck they were doing even in 2012.
Friendly reminder that the controls of the Valkyrie were damaged during Steve’s fight with the Skull.
Friendly reminder that Steve had no idea how to operate the aircraft nor did he understand it’s systems. Trying to figure out who to fly it in seconds (see again: extraordinary speeds) was simply not an option. Don’t believe me, the Marvel/MCU wiki describes the scene exactly that way here.
Anyone who thinks that Steve could have done anything other than crash it is severely cherry picking.
Steve Rogers sacrificed himself to save countless lives and I resent anyone trying to take that sacrifice away from him.
As a side note, here is the power of the space gem, described by Marvel themselves:
…do you see the part about increased speed? Okay then. I’m glad we had this talk.
This is so cute. And Tony with his tech. Would be cool to see all of them
Oh my god can I just like?? Say how ABSOLUTELY FUCKING AMAZING it is that in Avengers Assemble STEVE has a PAINTING of NATASHA SMILING.
Like a GENUINE smile not a smirk which is what’s usually on her face. It’s like, he got to see her smile so genuine and bright and he. Just. Had. To. Paint it.
BEAUTIFUL. 😍
Steve Rogers, July 4, 1918.-
